Beijing News Express (Reporter Wu Wei) The Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security held a regular press conference for the second quarter of 2020 on July 21. According to Nie Mingjun, director of the Pension Insurance Department of the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security, the adjustment level of the basic pension for retirees this year is adjusted to 5%. At present, 25 provinces have introduced their own specific pension insurance benefit adjustment plans.

  This year’s reduction in corporate pension insurance premiums is unprecedented. Will it have an impact on ensuring that pensions are paid in full on time and adjusting pension levels this year?

  "What I want to make clear here is that the reduction or exemption of social insurance premiums will not affect ensuring that pensions are paid on time and in full." Nie Mingjun said that the reduction and exemption policies have undergone repeated research, careful evaluation and precise calculation in advance, so it is necessary to ensure that pensions are paid on time and in full. The prerequisite is the payment of the amount. At the same time, the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security has fully pre-judged the degree of difficulty in guaranteeing the distribution of the provinces, and will increase funding adjustments and support for provinces with difficulties in guaranteeing the distribution.

  "Similarly, the reduction or exemption of pension insurance premiums will not affect this year's pension adjustment." Nie Mingjun said, on April 10 this year, the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security and the Ministry of Finance issued a notice to adjust the basic pension for retirees this year with the approval of the State Council. , The adjustment level is 5%. At present, 25 provinces have introduced their own specific adjustment plans, and the remaining provinces are stepping up the organization and implementation in light of the actual situation in the region, and strive to put the adjusted and increased pension funds into the hands of retirees as soon as possible.
